(J) DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through6 thereof, a new infant crib device embodying the principles andconcepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated bythe reference numeral 10 will be described.

As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 6 , the zip fastened infant cribassembly 10 generally comprises a crib 12. The crib 12 has a rectangularprism shape with a plurality of sides 14. Each of the sides 14 has a topedge 16 and a bottom edge 18. The top edge 16 and the bottom edge 18 ofeach of the sides 14 are positioned parallel to each other. Furthermore,the crib 12 has a base 20. The base 20 has a plurality of edges 22 witheach of the edges 22 being coupled to a respective one of the bottomedge 18 of each of the sides 14. The base 20 is positioned perpendicularrelative to the plurality of sides 14 whereby providing an area 24 of aninfant to be positioned within the crib 12.

A pair of zippers 26 is positioned on the plurality of sides 14, wherebyenwrapping the crib 12. The pair of zippers 26 comprises a top zipper 28and a bottom zipper 30. The top zipper 28 of the pair of zippers 26 ispositioned proximate to the top edge 16 of each of the sides 14. Thebottom zipper 30 of the pair of zippers 26 is positioned proximate tothe bottom edge 18 of each of the sides 14. Each of the zippers 26 isconfigured for interlocking a plurality of teeth 32. The plurality ofteeth 32 is configured for being positioned on an edge and coupling toanother edge by interlocking the plurality of teeth 32 of each. The topedge 16 of each of the sides 14 has the plurality of teeth 32.Additionally, the bottom edge 18 of each of the sides 14 has theplurality of teeth 32.

A net 34 has a plurality of surfaces 36 being positioned on a respectiveone of the plurality of sides 14 of the crib 12. The net 34 is a meshmaterial 36, whereby the mesh material 36 has a plurality of aperturesconfigured for giving the net transparency features. The net 34 has atop edge 38 and a bottom edge 40. The top edge 38 of the net 34 has theplurality of teeth 32. Likewise, the bottom edge 40 of the net 34 alsohas the plurality of teeth 32. The top edge 38 of the net 34 isconfigured for engaging by the top zipper 28 to the top edge 16 of theplurality of sides 14 of the crib 12. Furthermore, the bottom edge 40 ofthe net 34 is configured for engaging by the bottom zipper 30 to thebottom edge 18 of the plurality of sides 14 of the crib 12.

In use, the net 34 can be secured to the crib 12 by using the pair ofzippers 26 of the crib 12. When the net 34 is positioned on the crib 12,the infant can be positioned within the area 24 of the crib 12. Theinfant can be seen through the mesh material 36 of the net 34.Furthermore, an open top 42 of the crib 12 allows for a person to seethe infant as well. When the net 34 needs to be removed from the crib12, the user unzips each of the zippers 26.

With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized thatthe optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodimentenabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials,shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, aredeemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and allequivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings anddescribed in the specification are intended to be encompassed by anembodiment of the disclosure.

Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of theprinciples of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications andchanges will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is notdesired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operationshown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications andequivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of thedisclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used inits non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word areincluded, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. Areference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not excludethe possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless thecontext clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
